Beautiful CEO's Top Martial Expert-Chapter 2039 - 2037: Independent Cultivators Alliance
"No, it’s a stranger, a young man I don’t recognize, not someone from the Eight Ancient Clans or the Four Great Imperial Lineages. He controls two Dihuo, but his realm isn’t very high."
"However, he possesses a variety of powerful secret techniques and martial techniques and ultimately used a formidable sealing technique to seal nearly all of my powers."
Yan Long said coldly.
"Huh?"
Yan Xiaotian glanced at Yan Long and discovered that most of his inner strength was currently sealed by an invisible force.
He waved his hand, and this sealing power completely dissipated into nothingness, restoring Yan Long’s strength.
However, Yan Xiaotian’s face retained a shocked look, his eyes flickering:
"Nowadays, is there such a strong young generation in the Ancient Realm aside from those of the clans? Could it be from the Super Sects?"
"Father, I want to enter the Fire Domain. I want to learn that technique, and master that flame. I must personally defeat that kid and completely crush him to wash away the shame I received this time!"
Yan Long shouted sternly.
"You may, but whether you can master that flame depends on your fortune and opportunity. However, once you grasp it, among the young generation of the Eight Ancient Clans, you will have no rivals. Even against the heaven’s chosen ones of the Four Great Imperial Lineages, you can still hold your ground!"
Yan Xiaotian said to Yan Long, who nodded.
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the Bounty Hunter Alliance, in a room isolated by formations, Mark stood bowing before a white-haired elderly man in a brocade robe, who was sipping tea slowly.
"Elder Du mentioned your matter previously. Protector Xiong brought back that kid called Mu Lishang to headquarters. What brings you here now?"
The elder spoke.
"Elder, I came to discuss an important matter with you."
Mark said, explaining the situation regarding Xiao Yifeng holding the Bounty Alliance Leader’s Order and the prior incident in Hunter Valley.
"Protector Xiong actually gave him the Bounty Alliance Leader’s Order?"
The elder’s expression tensed, his eyes squinted slightly.
"Precisely, which is why I specifically came to inform you, Elder!"
Mark nodded. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
"The Bounty Alliance Leader’s Order is the master token. Without the leader’s command, Protector Xiong would never hand it to an outsider. Does that kid have connections with the leader?"
The elder’s eyes slightly squinted, glinting with light.
"Go immediately and use all resources to investigate this person’s identity, background, and origin!"
The elder looked sharply at Mark and commanded.
"Yes, Elder!"
Mark nodded, then left.
The elder’s eyes flickered with a mysterious look, pondering something unknown.
In the blink of an eye, another two days passed, and the time for the Dragon List battle approached, while Xiao Yifeng and his companions neared the Holy City.
After rushing for two continuous days, Xiao Yifeng and his companions stopped to rest in a city to relax since they were not far from the Holy City and didn’t need to hurry.
Upon entering the city, Xiao Yifeng and his group heard that the Independent Cultivators Alliance was recruiting new independent disciples here.
They were familiar with the Independent Cultivators Alliance.
It was an organization with ancient years within the Ancient Realm, initially formed by a few Super Sect independent cultivators without a sect.
Later, they recruited a large number of sect-less independent martial artists and eventually turned into today’s giant, the Independent Cultivators Alliance, encompassing hundreds of thousands of independent disciples.
Joining the Independent Cultivators Alliance provided protection, and those with good aptitude might even be accepted as disciples by the alliance’s powerful cultivators, receiving cultivation techniques and resources.
The alliance also runs various other industries, like the Tianchen Auction House and the Tianxiu Commerce Guild that Xiao Yifeng and his companions encountered earlier, accumulating considerable cultivation resources.
"Should we go take a look?"
Reen Tianwu expressed his curiosity with an eager look.
"Let’s go see it!"
Li Zitong, equally enthusiastic, said, eager to join in.
"Fine!"
Xiao Yifeng nodded helplessly, and the group followed the crowd.
At the city center, they noticed most of the city’s population gathered, alongside people from other cities.
The Independent Cultivators Alliance recruiting independent disciples was a significant event. Many sect-less, individually cultivating martial artists wanted to seize this opportunity to join the alliance.
First, to have backing and second, for the chance to obtain the alliance’s cultivation resources.
Xiao Yifeng and his companions arrived and were taken aback by the massive crowd, larger than the recruitment scene at the Heavenly Maiden Sect before.
The Heavenly Maiden Sect only recruited female disciples, whereas the Independent Cultivators Alliance recruited all, naturally drawing more people.
"You think you can join our alliance when you can’t even come up with fifty Top-grade Spirit Stones, and you’re only at the Opening Spirit Realm? Get lost and stop wasting our time!"
Just then, an angry voice sounded followed by a cry. At the recruitment site of the Independent Cultivators Alliance.
A member kicked a man, approximately in his thirties, who was only at the Opening Spirit Realm, causing him to vomit blood, his eyes full of rage but not daring to speak, while the kicker appeared arrogant.
"Who are these people? How can they hit someone just like that?"
Witnessing the scene, the women felt indignant.
"Well, blame him for not having fifty Top-grade Spirit Stones and thus unable to join the Independent Cultivators Alliance!"
A man nearby shook his head.
"To join the Independent Cultivators Alliance requires paying fifty Top-grade Spirit Stones?"
Xiao Yifeng asked, curious.
"It didn’t used to. Previously, the alliance recruited independent disciples with talent but lacking resources. However, the rules changed over time, requiring fifty Top-grade Spirit Stones to join!"
The man explained.
"They recruit disciples and demand fifty Top-grade Spirit Stones? That’s outrageous!"
Reen Tianwu snorted indignantly.
"Hurry up and leave!"
At this moment, the alliance member sneered at the man unable to provide the stones.
Slap!
Just then, a woman descended from the sky, landed here, and slapped the alliance member.
She hit him so hard that he staggered backward, leaving a red handprint on his face.
